I did not think it daft to double check.
Sorry about sending you to a crap parcel wrapping supplier.
Which glasses are broken?
Head, fog or both?

Headlamp glass only - fog light is fine. To be honest it's the existing fog light on the car which is really broken, the existing headlight only has a small 5mm hole in it from a stone so a replacements not critical.Both were like it when I got the car.

I've made an offer on the other one on ebay you mentioned so will hopefully get that instead.

If not I have some mk2 headlamps, easier just to swap the glass.

Morning Dean,

I got your PM and replied this morning (twice or three times in fact) - I sent the first message but it ended up in the "Outbox" rather the "Sent" folder which seemed odd to me so I sent it again - and that one ended up there as well so I sent another one and then found the first two had sent.

Maybe that's the way PM's send on this forum - I haven't sent that many and can't recall if this happened before.

Anyway, you should receive either 1,2 or 3 PM's from me !

If it's anything like other forums I've been on, when you send the message it does indeed go to the outbox (and you retain the ability to edit or delete said message) until the recipient has actually read the message, when it goes into your sent folder... Does seem a strange way to work, but quite good if you fire off a PM and suddenly realise that you've included a glaring error, missed out some information or sent it to the wrong username (I've done all 3 before now!)

Dean very kindly sent me a headlamp glass and I want to send him some money for it but I don't have his phone number. I've PM'd and emailed trying to get hold of him but I've had no response so does anyone have his contact number ?

I know it's not a fortune but I hate owing money to anyone and Dean needs to be compensated for his kindness.

Morning Dean,

Arrived in perfect nick, I haven't had time to fit it yet and it's not critical as the one on the car is basically perfect except a tiny hole.

I'm OCD about not owing people money - I'm sure you understand with your car detailing problem.....
